Hyundai Veloster Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2015	3dr Hatch 132-horsepower 1.6L I4 6-speed automated manual FWD	The Base model Veloster gets decently good fuel economy, thanks to the DCT. 27 City, 34 Highway is the adjusted EPA estimate, but I have achieved almost 42 MPG before on an economy cruise, just by driving with great care towards economy (but not hypermiling). see full Hyundai Veloster review
2013	3dr Hatch 132-horsepower 1.6L I4 6-speed automated manual FWD	I get on average 33mpg with mostly tollway driving at about 70mph or higher. see full Hyundai Veloster review
2013	3dr Hatch turbocharged 201hp 1.6L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	What ? All this fun to drive with all this speed and power ...and if I drive it easy I get 34mpg on the hwy ! see full Hyundai Veloster review
2012	3dr Hatch 138-horsepower 1.6L I4 6-speed automated manual FWD	Consistently get more than 30mpg, and have gotten 40+ mpg at times. Digital display lets me know what my fuel economy is and number of miles until I run out of gas. see full Hyundai Veloster review

Kia Sedona Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Comment
2008	Most Kia Sedonas earn EPA ratings of 18 mpg city, 24 mpg highway. This is just a bit worse than the Sienna's 18/25, but well below the Odyssey's 19/28, at least on the highway. But the SX Limited, with more heft and different tires, rates only 17/22, the lowest of any current minivan. In my real-world sub-freezing driving the trip computer reported averages between 16 and 21 in the suburbs (depending on the number of stops, amount of traffic, whether the engine was already warmed up, etc.) and about 25 on the highway. The Sienna managed about the same--but with all-wheel-drive. A front-wheel-drive Toyota should do a little better. In somewhat warmer weather, the Odyssey managed as high as 25 on my standard home-to-school run. see full Kia Sedona review

2009	4dr Minivan, ext. 250-horsepower 3.8L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	18mpg in the city - typical for minivans but not good see full Kia Sedona review
2008	4dr Minivan, ext. 250-horsepower 3.8L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Er, economy is not the right word to use here. It gulps fuel, even when driven fairly carefully. see full Kia Sedona review
2006	4dr Minivan, ext. 244-horsepower 3.8L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Other mini-van that we considered had a better fuel economy rating [but really not by much]. see full Kia Sedona review
2006	4dr Minivan, ext. 244-horsepower 3.8L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	The 2006 Sedona gets about 1-2 MPG less in real life MPG reports, compared to its Toyota and Honda competition see full Kia Sedona review
2006	4dr Minivan, ext. 244-horsepower 3.8L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Much lower than EPA advertised. see full Kia Sedona review
